[-- Attachment #1 --] Can someone help me? I was trying to install X windows in my machine The video card is shown as agp0 <intel 82815 (i815) SVGA controller> So modified the /boot/loader.conf and inserted a line agp_load="YES" and rebooted the system to allow loading of the module I aos creted a agp device note #cd /dev #sh MAKEDEV agpgart I used the /stand/sysintall command and used a fully graphical interface for X server configuration. I used a card mode i810 815 ver syn 50-100 hor syn 31.5 - 57.0 HF SVGA 1024 X 768 @ 70 Hz I modified the /etc/ttys file to change the X windows terminal ttyp8 to on. It came up with an error that the X windows confiugration failed. When I rebooted the system, the X window screen came up. When I entered the login name and password for root, nothing happened. The screen again came up. I am enclosing the output from the log file /var/log/XFree86.8.log Version details FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0: Thu Apr 3 10:53:38 GMT 2003 root@freebsd-stable.sentex.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Thanks Verghese George [-- Attachment #2 --] ĐĎॹá >
